Indices Give Up Half The Day's Rally To Close Mixed

Wed, 17 Jun 2009 22:32:57 GMT

The markets ended mixed after some intraday volatility. They were down in the morning, held near the 1440 area on the NDX and 904 on the S&P 500 and then bounced in a 5-wave move over the next several hours, reaching back up towards key overhead resistance at 1470 NDX and just under 920 SPX. When they failed to take that out, they rolled over and gave back about half the rally, which put the Dow and SPX back in the negative column at the close. Net on the day the Dow closed at 8497.18, down 7.49. That was about 65 points off its high. The S&P 500 fell 1.26 to 910.71, about 8 points off its high. The Nasdaq 100 still gained 12.64 today at 1455.89, but still closed 15 points off its high. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOXX) managed to gain 2.45 today, a little less than 1 percent, at 266.16. The technicals were still negative by a little better than 3 to 2 on[More...]
